In looking at this exchange, it's obvious that Craig did not plead guilty to any lewd conduct; the guilty plea was evidently for something else.

He denies that he did anything lewd over and over again.

If just one Clinton crime got this much press (excepting his lies about BJ Lewinski), they would be finished. And I am talking about crimes such as China Gate....just for starters.

Y’all need to listen to the actual tape.

He admitted NOTHING. He objected to EVERYTHNG. He was being badgered, and he was stressed. He kept saying he wants to leave, that he had to catch his plane. That it was impossible for his left hand to go under the divider.

He was a fool for pleading to disorderly conduct.

I wonder if the cop is homo.? It sure seems like some kind of a setup.

Do y’all think Senator Craig was setup?

If so, by who?

He was a fool for pleading to disorderly conduct.

And he was a fool for playing 'footsies' in a restoom stall.

He should resign.

DK: Embarrassing, embarrassing. No wonder why we're going down the tubes. Anything to add? NN Uh, no DK: Embarrassing. Date is 6/11/07 at 1236 interview is done.

Very unprofessional by the police officer. His actions should be scrutinized. Interesting how Craig could be in the stall to the left of the officer, seated and reach with his left hand under the stall. Maybe an orangutan or rubber man could do it but those of us with normal length arms, no.

By a sick old pervert. Namely, himself.

He’s guilty of being an idiot for talking to the cops without a lawyer present, but other than that I can’t see what he ever admitted to.

From Wikipedia:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Larry_craig

* A college student who was considering pledging at Craig’s fraternity at the University of Idaho in 1967 told a reporter for the Idaho Statesman that Craig led the student to his bedroom and “made what the man said he took to be an invitation to sex.” Craig responded: “I don’t hit on any men.”[27]

* A gay man told a reporter for the Idaho Statesman that, in November 1994, Craig cruised him at the R.E.I. store in Boise, following him around the store for half an hour. Craig responded: “I’m not gay, and I don’t cruise, and I don’t hit on men. I have no idea how he drew that conclusion. A smile? Here is one thing I do out in public: I make eye contact, I smile at people, they recognize me, they say, ‘Oh, hi, Senator.’ Or, ‘Do I know you?’ I’ve been in this business 27 years in the public eye here. I don’t go around anywhere hitting on men, and by God, if I did, I wouldn’t do it in Boise, Idaho! Jiminy!”[27]

* A professional 40-year-old man with close ties to Republican officials “reported having oral sex with Craig at Washington’s Union Station, probably in 2004.” Craig responded: “I am not gay and I have never been in a restroom in Union Station having sex with anybody.”[27]

Craig is married and has adopted the three children that his wife, Suzanne, had from her previous marriage.[6] Through his adopted children, Craig has nine grandchildren.[7]

What`s that saying again? Oh yes...

“If it quacks like a ...”

Yes, and this man has been exposed to be a gay activist.

Yup...let's immediately believe him and some charlie from '67 and some other anonymous charlie who say he was followed.

Real convincing.

If you were sitting on a toilet and reaching down for something your palm would not be down, it would be up.

And this proves he’s gay?

Especially if it was in back of you instead of in front.

And how the heck would he get his right hand across in back of the toilet on the cop's side.

Some real stretching on this story.

This is an interesting exchange:

DK: I’m not going to bring you to jail

LC: You solicited me.

You solicited me? How would LC know what gay solicitation is if LC isn`t gay and doesn`t know how the gay bathroom scene works?

LOL. Not exactly a real logical argument, is it?

The homo. lobby. He’s been a vociferous opponent of theirs.

I have ‘computer shoulder’ on the right side. It would be hard to reach backhanded under the wall with that right arm.

If I was already scooted over to the side of the stall to play footsies it would be much easier for me to reach down and across with my left hand. I just tried it at my desk.

I’m not a man so I can’t say. Do men spread their feet out further sometimes to help keep their suit pants from touching the floor?
